This is masterful radio production reminiscent of - but better than - the very best of BBC Radio 4. It starts well and somehow gets even better with each episode. By the final interview, we get to listen to two consummate practitioners in their fields deal with the most difficult questions raised without an ounce of either the journalistic disrespect or sycophancy that could be present in an interview with JKR. If Megan Phelps-Roper manages to produce more work of this stature, I suspect she to may end up also being referred to by just her initials.
